Did you miss the "hire a captain" part?

There's a lot more to safely delivering a boat over a long distance
than hiring a captain. That's the last step, not the first. Survey,
gear enhancement, sea trials and corrective actions are the first
order of business. All of that takes time, experience and expert
advice.



The point is that the captain is supposed to have the experience that the
crew/owner lacks. No responsible captain would leave port on a yacht that
isn't prepared properly.
